Televised Revolution: In Review – Episode 2

Adventure-Time

There is a heck of a lot of great TV on the air right now. Maybe too many good shows. This week on the Televised Revolution: In Review podcast we sort out the state of all that is television.

Up for discussion:

  • The return of Game of Thrones
  • New Starz Mad Men homage Magic City
  • Prue’s less than flattering thoughts on Best Friends Forever
  • Dan falls in love with Adventure Time
  • And Dan goes ga-ga for Aaron Sorkins The Newsroom

As always, we’d love to hear back from you on anything we’ve chatted about on the podcast.
